Best Way to interact with a collapsible list?

Posted on by 8

Hi All,

 

I'm having problems automating a collapsible selection list.  Is this like a drop down list? Does anyone know the best way to manage this?

 

Thanks in advance

    Hi @MAS42 

    Are you referring to a tree view like structure?

    In any case, have you tried making use of this action?

    Also Record the collapsing and see what it gives.

    Thanks for replying VJR,

     

    Yes, I suppose it behaves like a tree node - ie the list expands when you select a heading to reveal subheadings and collapses when you select another main heading (see attached screenshot taken from Timesheet Portal).  Your approach seems prominising so I'll give that a go.

    • Didn't look much like a Tree view in the screenshot, but you can try it out.

     

    • Also look for..

    @MAS42  It’s worth trying sendkeys if nothing works
